After getting a chuckle out of the students, Dietz discussed serious aspects of becoming a member.

“The things we do are determined by the students. We use skills from the classroom to reach out to the real world. If you have the time and dedication to come, we want you to be here. Even if you don’t have that much time, you can still come and be a part (of the guild).”
